Effects of Long-Period Stacking-Order Phase on the Corrosion Behavior of an Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr Alloy

Abstract This paper investigated the role of long-period stacking-order (LPSO) structure on the corrosion behavior of an Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr alloy. The amounts of the LPSO phase were tailored by heat treatment. The as-received sample contained a small amount of lamellar LPSO phase and $ Mg_{5} $(Gd, Y) particles. The lamellar LPSO was dissolved into the Mg matrix by solution treatment and precipitated at a low cooling rate. Consequently, the sample cooled in a furnace contained large amounts of LPSO phase (furnace-cooled sample). However, almost no LPSO was detected in the sample when cooled into water (water-cooled sample). Corrosion tests indicated that the LPSO phase deteriorated the corrosion properties of Mg alloy. Surface morphology for samples after immersion in 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution implied that galvanic corrosion was predominant for the Mg-Gd-Y-Zn-Zr alloy. The LPSO phase with a low potential was preferentially corroded compared with the Mg matrix, and therefore, a poor corrosion resistance of the Mg alloy containing the LPSO phase..
